Product catalog summary
Introduction
KOREMA® is a prominent manufacturer of flexible expansion joints, crucial for connecting pipelines and compensating for movements in modern production facilities. These joints also function as acoustic and thermal decouplers.
Company History
Established in 1968 in Weiterstadt, Germany, KOREMA® was the first to produce environmentally friendly expansion joints, pioneering asbestos-free designs and holding several patents. The company focuses on eco-friendly materials like SIMIFlON® and ElTROFlON®.
Product Specifications
Expansion joints are available in various forms, such as belt types and U types, designed to absorb different movements. They feature a sandwich design using elastomers and foils for temperature stability and chemical resistance. Key materials include Silikon®, Hypalon®, and Viton® for media resistance and sealing.
Applications and Customization
KOREMA® expansion joints are used in diverse applications, handling media that may be gaseous, humid, or contain dust, acids, or solvents. They are customized based on parameters like medium consistency, temperature, pressure, and movement absorption directions.
Design and Quality Features
Available in various shapes and sizes, these joints offer thermal insulation, vibration damping, and acoustic damping. They are resistant to extreme temperatures, chemicals, and fire, complying with relevant standards and directives.
Special Materials
SIMIFlON®: FDA approved, developed for the food and pharmaceutical industries, offering flexibility and easy cleaning.
ElTROFlON®: Suitable for explosive atmospheres, combining SIMIFlON® properties with electrical conductivity for high-pressure applications.

Conclusion
KOREMA® is distinguished by its innovative, high-quality, and environmentally friendly expansion joints, offering customized solutions for a wide range of industrial applications.
Overview
The document details KOREMA® expansion joints, manufactured in Germany using over 100 different fabrics and foils, emphasizing flexibility, safety, quality assurance, and environmental responsibility.
Specifications
KOREMA® expansion joints undergo stringent tests for burst pressure, puncture resistance, fire resistance, long-term bending resistance, and electrical conductivity. They comply with DIN, EN, and ISO standards and are certified for pressure equipment and ATEX directives.
Materials
Made from high-quality materials like polyester fabric, aramid, mineral fibre fabrics, stainless steel reinforcement, and foils including PTFE, Teflon®, and Kapton®, offering high tear resistance, chemical resistance, and high-temperature stability.
Quality Assurance
Each joint is identified by a nameplate for tracking and maintenance. KOREMA® is certified to DIN ISO 9001, ensuring high-quality production standards, using ecological packaging materials, and providing comprehensive documentation for installation and storage.
Installation and Handling
Expansion joints should be installed at the end of piping work to avoid damage, with specific storage and fitting instructions. Damaged joints should not be used without consultation, and regular maintenance, such as bolt tightening, is recommended for longevity.
Applications
Used in industries like air-conditioning systems, chemical plants, power stations, and waste incinerators, suitable for environments requiring high-temperature resistance and chemical stability.
Environmental and Safety Considerations
The document emphasizes ecological products for shipping and proper handling to maintain joint integrity. Safety data sheets and certificates of conformity are available upon request.

KOREMA® links tradition with innovation Products KOREMA® is one of the leading manufacturers of flexible expansion joints. Expansion joints connect up pipelines. These transition elements compensate for movements and can also act as acoustic and thermal decouplers. The various designs arise from the different movements which need to be absorbed: belt types, U types and a variety of special designs. History The company was founded at its present location in Weiterstadt near Darmstadt, Germany, in 1968. For its time, it was the first specialist company in the world to manufacture novel types of...

A sandwich made to measure Expansion joints have a sandwich design. Elastomers and foils are calendered onto high strength substrates and the attachment areas are then vulcanised by means of special adhesives. Depending on the design, the joints have excellent temperature stability and outstanding chemical resistance. Flow liners prevent abrasive media in turbulent flow from damaging the fabric. Tight and stable Elastomers such as Silikon®, Hypalon® and Viton® provide resistance to media attack and improve joint sealing. Externally they act as protection against physical damage and atmospheric...

General information about KOREMA® expansion joints Connecting pipes KOREMA® expansion joints connect piping systems which convey gaseous or dust laden flue gases at pressures above or below atmospheric pressure. The function of flexible joints is to absorb pipe movements in all directions: - Axial expansion and contraction (linear movement) - Lateral offset (side movement) - Torsion (twisting ) The point of application determines the design The precise design of the expansion joint is determined by its point of application. The basic shapes are round, square and oval. Expansions joints with differing...

Standard at a high level The most common type KOREMA® U type expansion joints are the most frequently installed version. They are also referred to as «flange type» since they are flanged between the ends of two pipes or ducts. Flange design is dependent on the existing plant, customer specifications or the existing steel construction on site. This type also comes with pre-insulation and protection against dust-laden media. Additional elastomeric gaskets ensure drip tightness if the system operates at or below dew point. KOREMA® expansion joint fitted between induced draught fan and stack
